Alliance sophomore Caysen Robertson Caysen Robertson 5'9" | 175 lbs | LB/RB Alliance | 2028 State NE made it back-to-back seasons as the Bulldogs’ leading tackler on defense, and this time he also took on a bigger role on offense as well. Caysen ended his sophomore campaign with 84 tackles, 15 TFLs, eight sacks, an interception, a forced fumble, and a fumble recovery. The biggest thing that stood out from Caysen’s second year is that this time he added the splash plays like tackles for loss, sacks, and turnovers on top of his elite production. He is most effective when he’s allowed to pin his ears back and attack his gap, flashing a quick first step out of his stance and possessing solid speed to close on the ball carrier. Although he may be a bit “undersized,” Caysen outplays that label with a tireless motor and underrated strength that allows him to fight off blockers at the line of scrimmage. He also shows the ability to fluidly flip his hips and drop into coverage, where he showed his lateral quickness and instinctive ball skills. Caysen carried the ball 99 times on offense, totaling 506 yards and five touchdowns. Tough player who is only getting better!
